  1. ED has released the 2026 and beyond video. I'm quite excited to see the Rafale coming to DCS. There is quite some content lined up for the Pacific theater. The upcoming Balkans map is also something I am quite excited about as well as the F14B update and the Eurofighter (if it finally arrives this year).

  3. Last night had a first, I’ve been doing a challenge where I try to start up every DCS module I get without the manual or guides. This time it was the C-130 Hercules which is a very complex boy! It was also the first time I did this together with my co-pilot Nene, who also had no idea what we were getting into.

    Going for a minimal spoilers approach with zero knowledge to start off with - we got the engines running in about two and half hours, and the aircraft correctly configured and in the air in about four hours! Making for a rather chill and fun aviation hangout with the chat. Thanks everyone for being there 💕

    Here’s the recording of the stream m.twitch.tv/videos/2633777076 which I will later also upload to YouTube so it won’t disappear.

  8. I run a community co-op #DCSWorld event regularly on Friday’s and here’s some shots from the most recent one

    We flew two missions this time, the first one being “Operation Grackles Nest” the first mission of the AFH campaign I’ve been making together with @NeneExists for the community. The mission begins with our carrier group arrives at Cypris to liberate it from Syrian forces, setting up to secure a foothold.

    The second one being “Feathers and Serpents”, a mission I originally made back in 2021 - a fast and fun canyon run filled with triple AAA and a SAM-enforced ceiling if you fly too high. We intercepted air defenses that were falling back from front and were left vulnerable.

  10. Here’s some moments from a recent community co-op flight I ran in #DCSWorld

    We were flying on the Persian Gulf Map, with some dynamic taskings you can trigger on demand. A mission a friend has been maintaining for years now and shared with me and the group.

    We visited the map of the world, did some runway cratering, air to air refueling and vtol antics.

  12. I'm back to DCS after a few months where I could not find the time (or the energy) to fly.
    I complete the 3rd mission of Weasals over Syria. I'm quite happy overall as I reached 100% completion. The flying was not flawless by far but after a few months break it was quite an achievement. The landing was decent too this time (considering the lack of practice).
    I love the new clouds. They look really nice and had to the immersion. DCS is not perfect but the team is still doing a good work.
    If you are interested in combat flightsim, definitely give it a try.

  13. Some really interesting developments in the works for DCS. I'm quite excited.
    If you are interested in flight sim, it is worth checking out.

  14. Over the past few months I’ve flown a lot of neat aircraft in DCS.

    I’m also one of the rare players who’s never purchased Flaming Cliffs outright, instead opting for picking those I like most among the collection.

    Of all the aircraft I fly, it’s probably no surprise that I’ve really taken to the F-16C. It’s the aircraft I feel the most at home in and find its capabilities exceptional. I’m also quite partial to the MiG-29 and Su-27/33.

    Among helis the AH-64D is a pleasure to fly and enjoy sneaking up on threats with Hellfires or gunning down targets with the FLIR at night.

    The Su-25T is an underrated bird I must say. It flies like shit but has a lot of “advanced” air-to-ground weapons you can play around with. You can also strap a ton of rocket pods under the wings to unleash an absolutely ridiculous barrage of rockets at ground targets. It’s cathartic raining down hell like that.

    The only aircraft I feel “meh” about purchasing is the AV-8B (Harrier), though that’s more down to a lack of experience with the bird than a dislike of it. The AJS-37 (Viggen) is another I need more experience with. I’ve just had my hands full with other aircraft.

    Having a lot of fun with friends. Looking forward to many more years of it to come. Assuming ED doesn’t do anything stupid.

  15. I just wanted to share how bizarre a product my #Winwing 16EX (ViperAce) joystick is.

    In order for the integrated vibration motor to function, you’re required to purchase an additional plastic module that fastens to the top left of the stick. It features a 5-way HAT and a 2-axis stick with push.

    The module itself contains no vibration motor. Just the chip that controls the motor inside the stick. My guess is that they couldn’t fit the chip inside the stick itself. It’s a ridiculous design.

    On the other hand, they’re using a cheap switch to give the trigger a “click”. Brilliant honestly.

    With the module attached the vibration from within the stick itself will only work when the Winwing SimAppPro software is running in the background, which includes the default (and customizable) vibration settings for aircraft of various flight sims like #DCSWorld, #BMS, and #MSFS.

    The vibration isn’t force feedback but it does vary in how it vibrates with different aircraft in a way that’s pleasant and intuitive to the touch. This goes for all their products featuring vibration motors.

    Pulling high AoA in a Mirage F1? It’ll vibrate aggressively.

    Launching a Sparrow in an F/A-18C? It’ll give a short gentle vibration as the missile comes off the rail.

    Vortex Ring State setting in while hovering your Mi-24? It’ll start buffeting against your hand with increasing intensity.

    If you don’t care about vibration and don’t want SimAppPro running in the background, then don’t bother with the additional “shaker” module. It doesn’t “add” a whole lot.

    Despite the stupid design, it’s a great product. I’ve had no issues over the past few months of use.

  17. While filming #EliteDangeous I was once again wondering what method of recording with what settings yields the best results.

    The advent of Steam Background recording also adds the question - how good is this superbly convenient method?

  19. Someone made the Liaoning

    In 1985, the Soviet Navy lais down what was to be the second of their new Kuznetsov-class of aircraft carrier. The vessel was originally named the Riga and later renamed the Varyag in 1990. In January 1991, the unfinished carrier was launched at the Mykolaiv shipyard in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic.

    Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, a now independent Ukraine left the unfinished shell sitting in Mykolaiv until China purchased it in 1998. Three years later they towed it to Dalian and modernized nearly every aspect of the ship. In 2012, the #Liaoning was officially commissioned by the PLAN for training purposes. By 2018 the Liaoning was refurbished and officially attached to an active fleet with whom it does regular training exercises to this day.

    In #DCS someone took the time to create a reskin of the Kuznetsov module to look like the Liaoning, which combined with the existing J-15 PLAAF skin for the Su-33 means this bird has a lore-accurate home for Marianas or some other whacky scenario.

    Just a neat thing I thought I’d share. :blobcat:
